Re: how many calories......?

OK, I have you burning about 2305 calories a day assuming that you perform the exercise you mentioned above each week.

Not coincidentally, that puts you right about in that 14-16 calorie per pound range that Steve mentioned from his easier ballpark calculation, but then again, what does he know.

If you're looking to lose weight, you'll lose about a pound a week if you can average eating about 1800 calories a day. You'll lose 2lbs a week if you can average eating 1300 calories a day, and 1.5lbs a week if you can average eating 1550 calories a day.

All this of course assumed you are exercising at the level you mentioned in your first post.
